Description
Hello!
We are Kathrin and Matthias. We are a couple from Germany and we are living in a small town in Bavaria, southern Germany. From October we will be traveling around in south y central America for half a year.
We are two enthusiastic and open minded people and looking forward to meet and get to know others, always interested in new landscapes and experience. We are very animal-friendly persons who also are much interested in sports, especially nature-related sports like climbing and hiking. We like a healthy and very active lifestyle, never missing a chance to explore something.
In our hometown, where we also founded an art, music and event organisation which we spent much of our spare time in. Therefore we´re also musician for electronic music. Through our commitment in this organisation we also learned lots of different things like building, technical support, organisation and working in teams.
Now to me, Kathrin:
I already traveled in different parts de south America in 2019 for ten months. I loved the people and the lifestyle there and had a really great time. For this reason I knew I have to return! I have studied German and sports to be a teacher and worked now in different schools with kids all ages.
And now thats me, Matthias:
I studied special needs education in Bavaria and did after this a further education for becoming a psychotherapist for children and adolescents. Beside work i´m in a theatre group (theatre of the oppressed) founded by Augusto Boal. I also read a lot and like to discuss about political and society issues with others.
Hola!
Somos Kathrin y Matthias, una pareja de alemania y vamos a viajar en Sudamérica para unos meses.
Nosotros somos personas entusiásticas y comunicables y esperamos conocer nuevos amigos. Siempre nos gustan las paisajes y las experiencias. Queremos mucho los animales y también deportes, especialmente deportes en naturaleza como escalar, caminar. Queremos nuestro tipo de vida, que es sano y muy activo. Jamás nos perdimos una posibilidad de explorar cualquier logar. En nuestra ciudad he iniciado una unión de artistas, músicos y gente, qué está organizando las fiestas de música electrónica. Por eso estamos utilizando mucho de nuestro tiempo libre para actuar como DJ y organisar fiestas. En esa unión aprendí varías cosas como construir, conocimientos técnicos, organizar y trabajar en grupos.
Yo Kathrin, ya estaba en sudamerica por diez meses en el ano 2019 y me encanta mucho. Por eso tengo que volver! He estudiado alemán y deportes en la universidad para ser una maestra y ya trabajé en muchas escuelas con alumnos de edad diferentes. Mi razón de viajar es aprender diferentes culturas y modos de pensar.
Yo Matthias, he estudiado educacion de nececidades especial. Despues de la universidad me eduqué para una profesión terapeuta infantil y juvenil. Ademas del trabajo soy parte de un grupe de teatro (teatro de los oprimidos) de Agosto Boal. Tambien me gusta leer libros y discutar sobre temas politicos y sociales.
